There are less than 24 hours until Michigan State and Ohio State are set to take the field against one another at Spartan Stadium. In this football season, that has been unlike any other, it is known that nothing is for certain until it happens. Crucial steps have been made towards the likelihood of Saturday’s game taking place.
Ohio State’s team physician, Dr. Jim Borchers, has publically came out and stated his support for the game and the safety of all student-athletes involved.

Many know the implications this game could have in Ohio State’s run at another Big Ten championship and a trip to the College Football Playoff. It is unknown how many players Ohio State will be missing, or who may be missing, but the Buckeyes have made it known they are ready for a game.
Ohio State is still a 24-point favorite to win this game in East Lansing. The Spartans will look for their third upset of a top-13 ranked opponent this season.
